All examinations, including the determination of possible risks during pregnancy and finding appropriate treatment methods ultrasonography, Down syndrome evaluation, screening tests, and amniocentesis), are carried out by these specialist physicians and the available technical equipment. In perinatal medicine, where risky pregnancies are closely followed, the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit provides the best treatment for the baby in high-risk pregnancies, and the Water Birth Unit offers a different birth option to expectant mothers.
Department of Perinatology
Academic Hospital's Perinatology Department provides support to mothers and babies in order for mothers to go through this process in a healthy way during a risky pregnancy period. All risks are evaluated in the perinatal medicine department, where all examinations, including ultrasonographic examinations, Down syndrome evaluations, screening tests, and amniocentesis, are performed. From the moment the pregnancy process is planned, within the framework of pre-pregnancy controls, the hereditary disease risks that may come from the mother and father or the diagnosis of fetomaternal diseases that may develop during pregnancy, that is, diseases that may arise from the fetus's mother, are determined. Risky situations during pregnancy are determined by various tests and ultrasonographic examinations, and appropriate treatments are planned for patients at risk. With a detailed ultrasound examination, the condition of the baby in the mother's womb, the possibility of ectopic pregnancy, and the amount of amniotic fluid in the baby are evaluated, and studies are carried out to ensure a healthy pregnancy, birth, and subsequent process. Perinatology deals with maternal and infant health. In summary, it is aimed at ensuring a healthy delivery by taking necessary precautions against risks during pregnancy.
Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Academic Hospital's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit was created to eliminate health problems that may occur during normal and risky pregnancies, during or after delivery. In this unit, in addition to physicians who are specialists in the field of newborns, there are nurses who have received special training in this field.
Water Birth Unit
Water birth is defined as an alternative and natural method of birth performed in a specially designed hot tub or birthing pool. This method, which has been used for a long time in many developed countries, has been among the birth options for expectant mothers in Turkey in recent years. Mothers-to-be prefer water birth, both because they get away from birth anxiety and stress and because there is no need for artificial pain or medical interventions with this method. The baby, who remains in the amniotic fluid in the mother's womb for 9 months, is born in the environment he is used to thanks to this method. In Academic Hospital's fully equipped Water Birth Unit, when the labor pains begin, expectant mothers give birth in safety and happiness in a specially prepared pool filled with sterilized water, brought to a suitable temperature for health, accompanied by an experienced team.
